With over a decade of hands-on experience in fitness, coaching, and community work, Coach Curt’s mission is clear: empower men to build healthy lives and stronger families from the inside out.
A Coach for the Everyday Man
At Anytime Fitness, Coach Curt became known for his ability to transform first-time gym-goers into confident, capable people who could finally prioritize their health without intimidation or ego. His clients were often people who hadn’t worked out in years or ever.
With patience and encouragement, he helped them overcome self-doubt, injury, and inertia to take control of their bodies and their lives.Curt is not the type of coach who shouts orders from across the gym. He trains alongside his clients, offering personal support and customized fitness programs that emphasize long-term success over quick fixes. Whether helping a person drop 30 pounds, improve his mobility, or finally be able to keep up with his kids, Coach Curt creates real, lasting change.
Hoop Therapy & Community Leadership
Through his flagship program, Hoop Therapy, Coach Curt brings the game of basketball back to its roots, as a tool for growth, unity, and accountability. Hoop Therapy isn’t just about jump shots and cardio; it’s a safe space for men to sweat, compete, release stress, and connect.
Every Saturday morning, players across ages and skill levels show up not just to hoop, but to heal.
Curt also has worked as a youth basketball coach and official referee, modeling fairness, structure, and mentorship to kids and teens. He teaches young athletes how to carry themselves with respect, on and off the court, and supports parents who want to see their children thrive in healthy environments.
Holistic Wellness Meets Fatherhood Empowerment
Curt’s fitness philosophy is holistic and restorative. He blends strength training with flexibility work, stretching, breathwork, and natural remedies, helping people reduce pain, restore balance, and boost energy levels without relying on toxic habits or medications.
As co-leader of Humanity Assemble and the Omni Dad Project, Coach Curt champions the idea that fatherhood is a calling—and fitness is the foundation. From leading group workouts for dads and sons to offering wellness coaching for entire families, he focuses on building generational health. He believes that when men show up for themselves, they can show up better for their wives, their children, and their communities.
